Yesterday the case of N. D. Carlisle & Son vs, Collector Arthur, which had been instituted in the Unired states Circuit Court, before Judge Nathaniel Shipman and a jury, came up for trial. The plain- tiff, as previously reported, are importers in this city, and im that capacity imported a quantity of woo} upon which the Collector levied & tax of ten cents per pound and an ad valorem duty of eleven cents, the Collector alleging that le was authorized to take this course under the act of Congress of March 2, 1867. ‘The daty thus imposed amounted to $20,000, and was paid under protest by Carlisle & son, who Drought this action agamst the government to recover back the amount exacted, and claimed that the act of Congress under which they were assessed Was unconstitutional on the ground that it was not signed by the President until the 4th of March, 1867. The importation was made on the day before the act received the signature of Prest- dent Johnson. The deposition of Jonson snowed that, though the act appeared to have peen signed by him on the 2d of March, 1867, the day of i's passage, he did not actually sign it until early in the morning of the 4th of March, 1867, and that he acted thus in pursuance of a custom then prevailing with regard to the signing Ol bills passed by Congress. This deposition was admitted in evidence by the Court. Mr. J. H. Choare, when the case came up yesterday, held, on the part of the plaintias, that by admitting evidence which showed that President Johnson had not signed the act referred to until the 4th of March, 1867, the Court would, in effect, decide that although Presidents were in the habit, wen they approved of acts of Congress, to date them back to the time when they were passed, the acts did hot, according to the constitution, become law until the very day whea the President reaily signed them, Judge Shipman briefly charged the jury and directed them to find @ verdict Jor tne plaw- tufls, ‘This they accordingly dia, The amount of the verdict is $20,000 in gold.

Before Recorder Hackett, Christian Mayer was placed at the bar, charged | with committing a felonious assault upon Wiliam | GF. Bergboid, a police sergeant, by striking him } with a hammer at Tompkins square on the 13th of | January. As considerabie aetails of this case were published relative to the so-called riot at Tompkins | Square at the time, Mr, Mott, counsel for the ac- | cused, asked the jurors some questions relative to | it and their feelings with regard to the crowd and the action of the police. An “impartial jury’? was without diMculty obtamed, After a brief opening by Mr. Kollins, WILLIAM C. F, BERGHOLD, SERGEANT OF THE SEVEN- | TEENTH PRECINCT, testified that on the 13th of January he Jeft the sta- | tion house at baif-past ten tor Tompkins square, un- der command of Captain Walsh; the platoon halted in the centre of the square, and Was ordered by bim to disperse the crowd; towards the northeasterly | corner there was a certain crowd of men, one of whom had a small banner with the inscription rue Tenth Ward Workingmen’s Club;” Oficer Walton told them to leave the square, and the man who carried the banner struck towards him, but did pot hit the officer; the Sergeant then walked towards tue same crowd, and the first man he met was Christian Mayer. the prisoner; he told the people they must | leave the square, and, while speaking, he | saw Officer Walton clinched with their supposed leader, who is now serving @ term in the Peniten- tiary; they both fell to the ground, whereupon ; the crowd immediately got round him and kicked Lathim; the sergeant went tothe rescue of the | officer, and while thus engaged Christian Mayer came alongside of him and struck him on the head | With a haumer, inflicting two scalp wounds, which confined him to the house for two weeks; the Ser- | geant said he had not done anything to Mayer, Cross-examined—I did not see any one strike with aciud; the men Were making no noise, but everything was peaceable and quiet. George Sauer, sworn, testified that on the day in | question he saw Mayer strike Sergeant Berghold on the head with a hammer and did not see the Sergeant do anything to the prisoner before that. On eross-examination the witness said that the | | police formed in a circle and told the men to dis- | | perse, and they were pressing out the crowd at the | Hme tnis happened; he saw the young man who | carried the bauner strike an officer. This closed | the case for the prosecution, Mr. Mott, in opening ‘THE DEFENCE, claimed that the accused acted in self-defence when be struck the blow, and that citizens had a | constitutional right to assemble together in small | or large numbers so long a8 they did not commit a | preach of the peace. ‘The first wituess called for the defence was The- odore W. Banks, who said he was present at Tompkins square, and that there were there from | four to five thousand peopie; he saw the policemen | | clubbing the men, but did not see this particular | transaction. In response to Mr, Rollins, Banks | said he was to have been chairman of the meeting that day, and belonged to the Internationals, but was not a Communist, Albert Biedermann, a member of the Tenth Ward Association of Workingmen, was called and asked What he saw the potice, as a body, do to the asso- ciation, This question Was objected to and was ruled out by the Recorder, on the ground that he could not sivear that he saw Sergeant Berghold there. The witness could only say that he saw Mayer strack by police omcers, | Jacob Schmitt testified that he saw Mayer lying | on the ground and policemen ciubbing him. Henry Schlueder swore that he saw the Sergeant take hold of the prisoner by the throatand club him, but did not see Mayerstrike the officer, Other a gi Of the association testified to the same etfect. THE PRISONER'S STATEMENT. testified that the Sergeant was in command of the police, and vook hold of him; he told the Sergeant that the men would do nothing to the police if they would let the associavion go; the Sergeant knocked the sign of the organization’ down, and mounted policemen and oMicers on foot crowded on every side; clubbing the men; the witness heard a police- | mau cry out, “Kul him,” and at that moment some | the hammer which he carried to do his work. one struck him (Mayer) on the back, whereupon he struck the officer that was nearest to him with He | farther testified that five or six policemen knocked ys, Barry, Brinkerhoff vs. Marquard, Manutactur- | ers’ Naulonal Bank of Philadelphia vs. Sclieider. &C., Driggs, Mutual Life Insurance Company vs. Mar- tin, Strasburger vs. Davidson, Hegeman vs. ‘Torry, Watrous vs, Lutkin, Conkling vs. Senior, Park ‘vs. Driggs, St. John vs. Donohoe, West vs. Migie, Union Dime Savings Bank vs. Duryee, Meyer ys.

A Highwayman Sent to State Prison for Eight Years. Before Judge Brady. Nearly all day yesterday was occupied in this court in the trial of William Adams, a youth only nineteen years old, charged with being one of a gang of three young ruffilans who knocked down | Mr. E. R. Finch, No. 273 Lexington avenue, at the corner of Thirty-fourth street and Tenth avenue. Mr. Finch is a gentleman sixty years of age, and while going to his residence was suddenly struck on the head from behind, knocked senseless to the pavement and stabbed five times, one of the staba penetrating his lungs, His cries of murder attracted the attention of Officer Crow, who arrested the prisoner while ranning from Ninth to Tenth ave- nu At his trial yesterday he was defended by Mr. William F, Howe, who undertook in the first place to mov . but th and he then undertook t mistaken identity, which de attenuated. On the cross shown that the accused was a member proved too thin, Ke it out a case of proved still more of an or- ganization of juvenile roughs calling themseives “The Crystal Waves.” While bis employer and friends gave him a good character the police showed that he was a hardened young wretch. Mr. Howe, tn summing up, pleaded most earnesuy and eloquently iu his benad, which resulted in a verdict of gullty but with a strong recommenda tion to mercy. Jnage Brady, though he might have sentenced him to cwenty years’ imprisonment, only gave him eight years, ai which Ue prisoner seemed quite thunkiul. Jt was, in fact, a clear case, and the evidence 80 overwhelmingly strong against the accused that no other verdict than the one given couid have been rendered. Charge of Attempted Blackmail. Application was made upon a writ of habeas corpus for the discharge of Mrs, Anna M. Barker, It appeared that some time since she sent a letter by her Qaughter to Mr. J. B. Joonson, demanding from him This request Mr. Johnson refasea to comply with, and thereupon she sent, as al- leged, a Second letter demanding $50,000, in which, as claimed, she reminded him of an insult he nad offered her on the cars from Washington to this city, and at the same time inuating that unless he complied forth- would inform her husband and he would a third party in th e. To this second Mr. Johnson paid no attention, and then quickly followed on its heels one in’ which she moderated her demands, however, to $500. By this time Mr. Johnson thought best to ton her lawyer, to Whom she reterred to in the course of her correspondence, but be could get nothing satisfactory trom him. Mr. MeClennan, who made the application, claimed that no offence had been committed, and that Mrs. Barker was entitled to her discharge. Judge Brady, aiter perusing the letters, took @ different View of the case, pro- nounced them certainly threatening in characier, and sald the case mast go beiore the Grand Jury. Meantime he ordered the prisoner to be retmandc to prisom. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS—SPECIAL TERM. Decisions. By Judge J. F. Daly. en, and Another,—Application refused.

Captain Walsh was called by the prosecution to prove that when Mayer was brought to the station house he confessed that before the association went to Tompkins square they were told by their “talkers” to arm themselves and if the police in- terfered to strike them down; that he struck the Sergeant with a hammer, according to instruc- tions, but regretted that be had done so when he found he was a German. Mr. Mott briefly addressed the jury on behalf of Mayer, after which Mr. Roilins said he was content to jeave the case with the jury.

A Singular Divorce Case—A Woman Charged with Bigamy—She Accuses Her Husband of Conspiracy. Betore Judge Gilbert. Frederick Otto’s suit for an absolute divorce trom Mary J. Otto, on the ground of adultery, was tried yesterday. The couple were married in 1860 and have lived since then in Brooklyn, Frederick is German and Mary English. The plaintiff claimed that the defendant had also committed mgamy by marrying one Frank Collins in January, 1870, He sought to establish this by the testimony of Mary Boulton, who formerly lived in the house with ae- fendant, who swore that she was present when Mrs. Otto and Collins were married by Rev. Dr. Searles. It appeared during the examination of Mary Boulton, that she herself was married woman, but did not live with her hus- band, At first she emphatically denied that she | was married, but when ber husband, whose name | | 1s Dean, appeared tn Court, and the articles of sep- aration between them were produced, she was compelled to own up. Mary explained that she did not recognize him as her husband, although she Was never divorced trom him. Judge Gilbert stated that he would not allow any Witness to rs unpunished who swore falsely. Rey. Dr. Searles testified that on the 26th of Jan- uary, 1870, he married Frank B. Collins and Mary G. Otto; he was not willing to swear to the iden- tity of the woman, but said that Mrs. Otto looked like the woman—more 60 than Mary Boulton, to whom his attention was also called, The defence was that the plaintiff’ had conspired with Mary Boulton and Collins in order to obtain a divorce, and that Mary represented herself as Mrs. Otto and was married to Frank. It was further alleged that the plaintiff had been improperly in- timate with Boulton, alias Mrs. Dean. The testi- Mony submitted by the defence was age re as to the bad character of this woman, ‘the wit- nesses declared that they would not believe her under oath, One witness said that the signature to the marriage certificate given by Dr. Searles | did not look like Mrs, Otto's handwriting. Mrs, Otto stoutly denied the truth of the charges against her. ‘The jury rendered a verdict for the defendant. The counsel for tae defence, a young man, was 80 overjoyed at this result that, before the jury had been discharged, he proceeded to thank them most proiusely. Judge Gilbert interrupted the young man and | notified him that such a proceeding was not proper | at that stage of affairs, The counsellor subsided, The incident created considerable merriment in the court room, CITY COURT—TRIAL TERM. A Debt that Was Not Paid. Before Judge Neilson. 1m January, 1870, Charles D0. Burtow contracted with Joseph Bell to furnish certain materials worth $800 to be used in the execution of a contract which Burtow had entered into with one Henry Harrison to build four houses in Gates avenue, Har- rison agreed to advance Burtow $2,500 on each of the lots in order to enable him to go on with the ‘) work. Burtow gave Bell an order for the amount due him upon Mr. Harrison, the money to be paid when the next instalment of the loan to Burtow yecame due. The order, however, was not paid, and Bell, therefore, brought sult against Harrison to recover the amount. ‘The case was tried yesterday. It was alleged by the defence that, after the order or note was made, Burtow abandoned the work on the houses, and consequently he was not entitled to any more money. ‘The jury rendered a verdict in favor of plaintif® for the full amount claimed.
